A great super sporty crossover SUV. In 12 years we have put super low mileage on it and it has held up well. A handsome very comfortable cabin and a tight, sport-tuned ride have made us very happy with our purchase over the years. While driving it's easy to forget that you're not driving a sports car. The interior has held up well considering that we've always used it for dog transport. The remote keyless entry has been flawless, no need to use key or clicker, just walk up press a button and open the door. The engine provides plenty of passing power when needed and the cargo area when the seats are folded down has met all of our cargo needs. There have been no surprise repairs (except for warrantied recalls) and the car still looks great. We only recently had to replace the tires last year. The premium sound system is great. People still ask us what model and year it is. A cool feature is the split fold-down rear seat which means you can quickly fit one rear passenger in the back in a pinch without undoing the max cargo configuration. This also allows for a dog minder in the back!

The Mazda CX-7 is a great car to own. It is small on the road but quick because of the dual exhaust system. It has a great pick up and go power behind it. It is great on gas the only downfall with that is it requires the supreme unleaded which of course is the most expensive gas to purchase. However, it makes a huge difference with the way the car drives. The car appears to have a ton of features that you learn as you go along or you can just read the manual and try to memorize them all. it as plenty compartment space so there is lots of room to store everything. The trunk is spacious. The tires are a bit expensive so look to put out close to sixty dollars for a tire. There are some problems with the airbag light coming on. There has been a recall on that. The car does ride smooth. There seems to be a problem with things rattling under the bottom of the car but overall it is a great car to have. The interior is easy to clean and the overall car is easy because it is a smaller car. The engine is clean and there have been no problem with leaks or weird smells coming from the car. The only downfall to the car would have to be the unpredictable warning lights that come on at various times. The tire light stays on and the airbag light stays on. It can be nerve wrecking. Also, there have been some problems with the rpm gauge spinning unpredictable at times. Overall, if you keep the car maintained there is very little concern.
